Systematic analyses of plants that are used in traditional medicine may lead to the discovery of novel cytotoxic secondary metabolites. Diterpene possesses multiple bioactivities; here, epoxy clerodane diterpene (ECD) was isolated from Tinospora cordifolia (Willd.) stem and shown potential
Crispene E, a new clerodane-type diterpene, inhibited STAT3 dimerization in a cell-free fluorescent polarisation assay and was found to have significant toxicity against STAT3-dependent MDA-MB 231 breast cancer cell line and selectively inhibited the expression of STAT3 and STAT3 target genes cyclin
Two novel neo-clerodane diterpenoids, barbatellarines A (1) and B (2), were isolated from the whole plants of Scutellaria barbata, along with the known compound scutebarbatine F (3). The chemical structures and relative stereochemistry of the isolated compounds were established by NMR (1D and 2D)
Ten new (1-10) and seventeen known (11-27) neo-clerodane diterpenoids substituted with nicotinoyloxyl were isolated from the plant Scutellaria barbata and their structures were established by extensive spectroscopic analysis. Chemoreversal effects of these neo-clerodane diterpenoids on multidrug
Two new cis-clerodane-type furanoditerpenes, crispenes F and G (1 and 2), together with seven known compounds, were isolated from the stems of Tinospora crispa. Crispenes F and G (1 and 2) inhibited STAT3 dimerization in a cell-free fluorescent polarization assay and were found to have significant
The first phytochemical investigation of Casearia graveolens twigs led to the isolation and identification of a new clerodane diterpene, caseariagraveolin (1), together with six known compounds (2-7). Their structures were elucidated by intensive analysis of their spectroscopic data. Compound 1
Two new clerodane diterpenoids (1 and 2) and the known compound caseanigrescen D (3) were isolated from the leaves of Casearia grewiifolia by bioassay-guided fractionation. Their structures were determined by analyses of MS and 2D NMR data. The absolute configurations of 1 and 3 were established by
The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of di- and sesquiterpenoids isolated from the pods of Sindora sumatrana Miq. (Leguminosae) on P-glycoprotein (P-gp) function in an adriamycin-resistant human breast cancer cell line, MCF-7/ADR. Over-expression of P-gp is known to be one of
